West Side corner gets covered by Sterling Smalley

Buffalo Rising’s ‘Man on the Streets’ Sterling Smalley has an audio report on one of the city’s newest attractions found on the West Side. A new parking lot is being ‘built’ at the site that was once Saint Mary’s on the Hill. Upon setting out to find the new unremarkable landmark, Sterling asked neighbors and even an asphalt expert about the change of scenery at the corner of Niagara and Vermont (stated as Rhode Island in the audio due to confusion over where the church once stood – queenseyes will take credit for mistakenly identifying the intersection in the audio script).

Regardless as to which Niagara Street corner now has a new parking lot (there are a few), the West Side finally has enough parking to accommodate its D’Youville students, which was most likely the predetermined outcome for this corner since the start – little pressure on the out of town property owner, pressing demolition schedules, not attempt at saving any walls or adjoining building (that looked to be intact), no effort to preserve history.

Looking on the bright side, Sterling has come to find out that there are plenty of people in the neighborhood who are happy to see this long overdue parking lot come to fruition. Here’s Sterling’s audio report on this breaking news…

Before the out-of-town owner bought it, people who wanted that building to be saved had years to proactively buy it and privately fund its mothballing or rehab (which would’ve been fine with me if anybody wanted to do that, so maybe I won’t qualify for what steel calls the ‘demo everything’ crowd / guys / gang ).
Someone could’ve tried to outbidhttp://rising.wpengine.com/2011/08/wrecking-buffalo-good-bye-st-marys/of $17,000 in 2006 or $150,000 in 2010. Those don’t seem impossibly high dollar amounts.
Parking lots are shovel ready if and when somebody wants to build – as we’ve seen with other parking lots (in EV next to Globe, and Chippewa-Elmwood for part of Uniland’s project, and Issa’s failed City Tower which would’ve been on a parking lot Croce now owns if I recall correctly but Issa was able to acquire, and Webster Block’s HarborCenter, and so on…)

NewBuffalo

Why stop here? Why not demo the entire west side for parking? Or better yet, let’s knock down City Hall for a parking lot?

David Steele Steel, a completely unrelated topic: On the next street over from where I live, on Cottage Street, there is a mammoth of a house that is very different than the rest. Do you have any info or even know what I’m talking about? It’s between Maryland and college. google has it at about 47 cottage street.
You don’t have to entertain this question, but, you seem like a good resource. Thank you for any help. This place sparks my curiosity because it seems to be out of place when compared to the surroundings. (in a good way, its beautiful)

wtupperguy

So, we’re soon to break ground on a Niagara Street overhaul
and we start with a new parking lot? I know these projects are unrelated, but seriously,
come on. This isn’t the neighborhood reinvestment we had in mind.

biniszkiewicz

A little perspective is in order.
First, the parking lot is occupying a vacant lot. Once upon a time a church stood upon that vacant lot. But it nevertheless is a vacant lot and has been for several years now. Is that lot sacrosanct because upon it this church once sat? This is not a case of building getting demolished for the purpose of creating parking. There are certainly examples of the latter (210 Delaware being demolished for the Jackson/cum Hampton, for example). But this is dirt. The demolition had nothing whatever to do with a desire for parking.
Second, there might be good reason that someone wants to create parking. We ought to insist on better screening of parking lots, so they look better. But there is demand. The Connecticut Street Armory right next door and a push north by D’Youville over the last decade has grown that campus.
Isn’t it good that D’Youville has been growing? Isn’t it good to attract more residents to this area (parking is tight for residents; freeing some street parking up from students or Connecticut Armory patrons will be welcome.
Is it as nice as a redeveloped church? Nope. I tried to sell that church a few times; had no luck hooking a fish–too much work even a decade before it fell to entice buyers. But the church fell not so that some parking lot could occupy the dirt. The church fell because it was expensive to fix and nobody was able to come up with any plan that made financial sense to save it in its last twenty years of life.

NBuffGuy

It’s too late to save the building that once stood on this now vacant lot. That train has left the station. I don’t see anything wrong with allowing students at D’Youville College, whose student body is largely a commuting one, to use the space for parking until someone comes along with an idea for a better use.

The next generation of jazz

Event Details

The next generation of jazz greats visits the Performing Arts Center. Vincent Ingala, Jonathan Fritzen and Buffalo’s own Cindy Bradley take the stage showcasing their musical prowess. The concert features the fastest emerging contemporary jazz artists performing together on one stage. This unprecedented event features Ingala on saxophone, Fritzen on keys, and the Buffalo homecoming of Cindy Bradley on trumpet.

Vincent Ingala has blasted into an exciting stratosphere of his own making since his 2010 critically acclaimed debut album, North End Soul. One of the fastest emerging contemporary jazz recording artists in recent history, multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer, is still only in his early twenties, the charismatic saxophonist has been named Billboard Smooth Jazz Artist of the Year in 2012, Sirius XM Watercolors Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2013, and his music is consistently found atop the most noteworthy music charts in the world, including three number one hits on the Billboard Smooth Jazz Chart, five singles in the Billboard Smooth Jazz Top 10, as well as an unprecedented 25 weeks at #1 on SmoothJazz.com’s Top 50 Independent Chart and #15 on SmoothJazz.com’s 2014 Year End Chart.

Jonathan Fritzen has quickly risen up the smooth jazz ranks with emotionally engaged music filled with melodic hooks, layered textures, and genuine musicianship. Considered one of the hottest composers and keyboard players in instrumental jazz, his latest work, Fritzenized became a chart topper before it was even released. It is the Swedish American’s fifth solo CD and follows the critically acclaimed Magical from which the title cut blasted a path to #1 on every smooth jazz airplay chart on the planet.

Buffalo native Cindy Bradley is not only keeping the trumpet and flugelhorn hip, she’s also continues her knack for picking spot on album titles. Calling her 2009 debut Bloom proved prophetic, as the multi-talented performer blossomed into a powerful and charismatic presence at radio and on the contemporary jazz festival circuit. Along the way, Cindy performed everywhere from the River Raisin’ Jazz Festival in Monroe, Michigan to the Dubai Jazz Fest. She won Best New Artist at the American Smooth Jazz Awards and was named Debut Artist of the Year by the Catalina Island Jazz Trax Festival and Smooth Jazz News. How to follow up? Easy. Don’t over-think or worry about everyone’s great expectations. Like a lot of the most exciting moments in life, it’s sometimes just best to go Unscripted—the perfect moniker for the whimsical spirit and stylistic diversity that drives Cindy’s new album.
